The cross member should have the holes there to mount the factory motor options from that era.

On a side note. What did you do with the 7.3?

since that body style never came with a 351M, you are most likely going to have to fabricate the mounts.

The 351M came in the F-250 and F-350 in the early '80s ('80 - '83?). Would mounts from those trucks work?

Do that make an adapter bracket for something like that and should I be looking for towers also?

If you can find the ones that nothing special is talking about they should bolt up
